    Description

    Meals That Matter 2026 is a community fundraising effort focused on providing 50,000 hot, nutritious meals to individuals and families across Georgia who are experiencing food insecurity. The campaign's goal is to raise $465,000 to cover the full cost of preparing, delivering, and safely distributing these meals.

    To launch the campaign, we are seeking Ambassadors to help raise the first $25,000. A funding partner has committed to matching these donations dollar for dollar, allowing us to immediately double the impact of every contribution.

    Ambassadors support this effort by raising funds through their personal networks, including friends, family, colleagues, and others they already know. Each Ambassador begins with a personal contribution of $100 as a shared commitment to the campaign and then selects a fundraising goal that aligns with their network and capacity.

    Ambassador levels include:

    • Community Ambassador – $1,000 goal
    • Core Ambassador – $3,000 goal
    • Leadership Ambassador – $8,000 goal
    • Champion Ambassador – $15,000 goal

    Ambassadors have the flexibility to determine how they engage their networks. There are no required events, scripts, or prescribed fundraising methods. Success is built through personal outreach, authentic relationships, and individual initiative.

    This opportunity is best suited for people who care about addressing food insecurity in Georgia, are comfortable inviting others to support a meaningful cause, and prefer to work independently.

    At its heart, Meals That Matter 2026 is about turning personal relationships into direct support for people who need access to nutritious meals.
